One Best friend better than a couple of close ones?


Question Posted Thursday September 2 2010, 5:52 pm

I've got a couple of friends. But I'm not super close to them. They have friends that are closer to them than I am so I don't really know all the news things happening to them and I'll find out a couple of days later. I mean, we're close, but not AT close.

I have a best friend and I tell her 99% everything! Sometimes, I wish I had another best friend or maybe two more so that if there's a rough situation I'm in and I couldn't tell my best friend, at least I'll have someone else to talk to. Posting them online to anonymous people is also okay, I guess, but I'm not comfortable with that.

Am I bad for even hoping for another friend? Not a REPLACEDMNT, but more than one? Or should I be happy with what I have? I mean, I think my best friend talks to some other people about things more than she does with me about her troubles :(

Well, in my opinion, one best friend is enough. Maybe you can bring your other friends closer, but I think that it's safer to have one person to share your deepest feelings with.

I tried to help. Sorry if it wasn't what you were looking for.
Best wishes!

I have a group of close friends and one best friend. I like being super close to one but also close to the others. I like having the others because I can confide in them things I wouldn't tell my bff.

You can deepen your relationship with the other friends by spending more time with them and confiding in them more, and they will do the same. Try to make new friends too, you'll never know who you'll get close to.

Good luck,
